Cherry Wood Dining Room Set

Solid wood dining sets are a valuable addition to your home and can become an heirloom piece to pass down to the next generation. Many types of wood work well in dining room sets, but cherry wood has become a favorite thanks to its durability and beauty.

Cherry Wood Dining Room Set

Cherry wood does not rot easily and is easy to carve into a variety of shapes. It has exceptional impact resistance and is even popular as a hardwood flooring option. A cherry wood dining room set can also add to the warmth and hospitality of your dining room.

Like other types of wooden furniture, cherry wood dining room sets come in many sizes and styles. Assess the specifications for each set to ensure it has the weight limits and overall dimensions you need for your household and space. Most cherry wood chairs have weight limits over 250 lbs., but some are slightly lower.

Some sets also include manufactured wood (MDF), rubberwood, or other materials besides solid cherry wood. MDF makes an excellent addition to tables and chairs thanks to its strength, so it works well for reinforcing cherry wood. Cherry wood tables rarely include metal other than the nails and screws, but occasionally, the table or chair frames include iron or stainless steel besides the cherry top or backrests.

The chairs included with cherry wood dining sets usually include upholstered seats for maximum comfort but don't always have upholstery on the backrests. You can also add custom cushions to wood chairs, but built-in upholstery is the most stylish option. Popular upholstery options include microfiber, polyester, and faux leather.

Besides standard 28"-33" tables, counter-height tables are also popular for casual dining environments. These tables range from 34"-39" inches, and sets with this height range also include chairs that are taller than average. Bar-height tables are not typical for dining room sets.

Chair styles also vary, and many omit armrests to make them easier to sit down in. Active families with children who frequently use the table for homework or snacks may find it easiest to use chairs without armrests. Some dining sets even have low-back chairs or stools, but these are not common because they can be uncomfortable for sitting for long periods.
